There are three basic designs of of cutting teeth on modern chainsaws: Square, Semi-Round, Round.

Which one to choose?

The choice obviously depends on your needs.

ROUND (fig.A): features thick top and side plates and a large radius cutting edge. This type of chain is very durable and easy to sharpen but requires a lot of power.

SEMI-ROUND (fig.B): it is a more aerodynamic model and cuts 10-15% faster than a round chain. It features a tapered top plate, a raised side plate and a smaller radius at the leading edge. This greatly increases cutting efficiency without sacrificing too much durability; it requires less power than the round model.

SQUARE (fig. C): designed for maximum efficiency (it is the most efficient of the 3 types). The leading edge is a sharped right angle. The square cutting edge of the chisel chain cuts faster as it cuts through all the wood fibres at once. Therefore, the chisel-toothed chain is better suited to upright and clean trees. When properly sharpened, it offers the best cutting performance of all.

Chain with round teeth is the most durable in abrasive conditions. Chain with square teeth is very widespread, but the leading edge is more easily damaged, making it an unfortunate choice in abrasive conditions. The chain with semi-round teeth is the best compromise between speed and durability.
